A Path to Inner Consent

<strong>My name is </strong><br /><strong>Yulia Birnstingl</strong>

My name is
Yulia Birnstingl

For many years, I worked in business — leading teams, launching projects, and supporting people in their growth.
Over time, I found myself thinking not only about outcomes, but about what truly gives us meaning. This search led me to a turning point, and marked the beginning of my path in psychotherapy.

Today, I practice existential analysis and complement it with elements of gestalt therapy.
I work in Russian, English, and German — in private practice, online, and at the university outpatient clinic.

My aim is to support you in living in alignment with yourself — freely and authentically, with respect for your personality, your boundaries, and your feelings.

ABOUT PSYCHOTHERAPY

Existential analysis is a method of psychotherapy based on the philosophy of freedom, responsibility, and authenticity.

At the center of this approach is the idea of inner consent: living in alignment with your feelings, actions, values, and personal choices.

Such consent becomes the foundation for inner stability, personal meaning, and real connection with oneself.

When a person can say a true "yes" to their path, they come closer to themselves.

Here are just some of the topics clients bring to therapy:

Anxiety

Fear, panic, obsessive thoughts and states

Exhaustion

Fatigue, burnout, depression

Crisis

Life transitions, grief, loss, loneliness

Immigration

Adaptation and integration in a new country

Closeness

Relationships, family, partnership, sexuality

Development

Parenting and self-actualization

Self-exploration

Search for meaning, personal growth, identity

This list is not exhaustive.

You are welcome to come with your own story—even if you have not yet found the words for it.

HOW TO BEGIN

The first meeting is an opportunity to get to know each other, share what has brought you here, ask questions, and see whether you feel comfortable with me.

We will look together at whether we are a good match, and discuss whether further work is possible, in what format and rhythm it could take place.

In-person in Vienna (Wednesdays, at Franz-Josef-Kai 21/18,1010, Wien)
Online (on other days)
